Tea party parses ‘tyranny’

“While conservatives have … bemoaned a ‘war on whites,’ if the tables were turned and white Americans had double the unemployment rate of black Americans, or were more likely to be incarcerated for the same crime, the tea party would undoubtedly have a new definition of the word ‘tyranny’,” writes H.A. Goodman for Huffington Post.

Does anyone actually believe that the tea party is anything more than the KKK without the sheets? The “war on whites” is such a pathetic ploy as to be laughable. They are bemoaning violence in Ferguson but rejoiced when ARMED supporters of Cliven Bundy were poised to begin shooting police officers. Clearly, the enemy of the tea party is not high taxes, it is anyone who in not lily white, Christian and heterosexual. Interesting that they enjoy an approval rating lower than that of congress. Speaks volumes to how the majority of Americans view these fools.

Are you trying to tell the readers of this blog that you are not lily white, Christian, heterosexual and/or male? Just wondering!

Playing the “race card”! The most popular recent “refuge/reaction” of left-wing scoundrels. Because of the tyrannical regimen/s of “Political Correctness”, employing slander, libel and defamation.

Most who agree with the single message (advocating for lower levels of taxation & government over-regulation) of the Tea Party are afraid to, truthfully, respond to any survey designed and administered by extreme left-wing “special interests”.
*
Many of all races, genders/orientations, religions appear at Tea Party rallies because they agree with the sole Tea Party message of the need for a lowering of taxes. Primarily on America’s working middle class.

Comment #2 ((JiggsMalone)(Follow-up):

The last line of my prior comment would have been more clearly expressed as:
*
“Now! There’s a truly reliable source of impartial commentary! Not!”

How can black Americans have “double the unemployment rate of” white “Americans,” after 5 and a half years of President Obama’s intelligent, effective and progressive economic policies? Are you saying that Obama’s Stimulus Act, Cash for Clunkers, Obamacare, etc have failed to improve the economic status of balck Americans?

Jiggs…your comments are so out there and off base as to be laughable. What exactly are you trying to say? Can you keep it to one consistent thought? I have no idea why the reference to the TU article on Conti’s support for the end of DOMA. I thought we were talking about the tea party’s racist double standards.

Serving to explain, in part, the seeming incoherency. Not helping is the appearance of some of my comments being “let through” twice when it was intended, by myself, for them to appear just once. I think you understand but prefer to pretend otherwise.

By any chance are you employed at the Albany TU with authorization to access and edit blog entries? Perhaps, by those with whom you disagree? If so, it would not surprise me.

It is you who are being absurd because the Tea Party has not displayed a double standard of any type. Racist or otherwise. You are putting forth pure and ungrounded propaganda. Referring to a Huffington Post posting, also ungrounded propaganda, in a lame effort to “play the ‘race card'” by invoking the name of the KKK. It is you, as well, who raised the issue/s of sexuality and religion by posting the following quote:
*
” Clearly, the enemy of the tea party is not high taxes, it is anyone who in not lily white, Christian and heterosexual.”

Furthermore, 2 of the posters, on the “Conti/DOMA” blog also “played the ‘race card'” as part of their ad hominem attack. In much the same way as yourself in this comment.
